Why didn't this make Jazz cool again like everyone said it would? Why isn't Jazz cool anymore?
>>
Because it wasn't actually a great album, it was just the latest fad at the time.
>>
so it started in 2010 with Cosmogramma, which was actually a really inspired and individual fusion of jazz and popular music

but then it's escalated into its own commercial niche, with all kinds of hacks like Kamasi, BBNG, Thundercat, and tons of hack producers who throw in an Add6 every now again to call it "jazz-inspired"

I didn't realize it until I saw all these places like Bandcamp and Vinyl Me Please talking about "woah look Jazz is COOL now!" it's all marketing
>>
>>74133711
same reason why lie lie land didn't inspire ppl to like jazz.
PPL HAVE SHORT ATTENTION SPANs
>>
>>74133736
Don't talk shit about BBNG.
>>
>>74133768
bbng is trash
>>
>>74133768
literally their entire schtick is "look we didn't pass Jazz juries in university, that means we are rebels?????"

they are hack players, they don't know how to play Jazz, they are the epitome of 4chan losers who post about "oh my music's so good"

Fantano giving BBNG2 a 9 is all they had.

What are some good modern Jazz albums anon? I'm not asking so I can shit on them, I'm curious because you seem like a fan. Alls I know about modern jazz is Tim Berne's Snakeoil stuff.

>>
>>74133962
Thanks! This stuff seems more up my alley. The reason I ask is because I usually just get BBNG and other shit you mentioned (though I like the Kamasi album). RYM is just as bad with what gets high ratings on the Jazz charts.
>>
>>74133733
hey, i still think its a pretty neat album
>>
The Epic is an overrated-underrated album. It was so highly overrated upon release that it created a massive backlash about how bad it was. Except that it really wasn't a bad album at all, it was pretty good, and is now an underrated album. It just didn't live up to the hype it got.
>>
>>74134276
yup, this 2bqfhwyfam
>>
>>74134276
Pretty accurate although I wouldn't go as far as calling it "pretty good"
>>
>>74133791
not a real argument. you simply don't like them, thats your opinion.
>>
>>74134589
lol you don't have an argument at all
>>
>>74134723
not an argument. its called subjectivity, look it up
>>
>>74134779
Not him but woah what a fag. No shit music is subjective but you can still discuss it and defend your point of view, if you don't want to discuss music and just want to be a sjw cuck you can fuck off back to your safe space

>how does it feel to be this tasteless

Jazz always makes me remember the smell of my wooden mouthpiece thing for my sax in music class in middle school. I don't want to remember middle school.
